Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Cut tops off eggplants and scoop out flesh. Cut flesh into chunks and set aside. Rub salt over the insides of the eggplants. Arrange on a baking sheet.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until softened, about 15 minutes. Let cool.

  4. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Saute pork, green onions, and cumin until pork is no longer pink, 5 to 8 minutes. Add chopped-up eggplant flesh and cook until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes.

  5. Spoon pork mixture into the hollow baked eggplants.
